Hi as you update your module (especially when adding forms or info on hoom_menu) remember to clear your cache (either using drush - http://drupal.org/project/drush) or via the admin panel of Drupal (admin/settings/performance). You do not need to re-install your module. If you have any more questions of that are related to just starting out keep in mind that the support mailing list is the more appropriate place for that.

Hi

Im starting drupal module coding ( i have drupal 6 installation )

My module is pretty simple and i plan to add more funcionality over time

do i need to reaload the module (deactivate/activate) whenever i add new funcionality (ex a new form) or does drupal just blindly call callbacks so just updating the .module file doas the trick.

Thanks in advance!!

No, you don't have to disable/enable or uninstall/reinstall when changing your module. There are times when you have to clear the cache - for example if you add/change an entry in hook_menu(). There are times that you need to run update.php (if you've added hook_update_N() functions). You're certainly not the first newbie to wonder about this! -Randy On Thu, Feb 3, 2011 at 1:33 AM, Angel Alvarez <clist@uah.es> wrote:
